Easter!

Happy Easter!


Easter baskets are a lot of fun!


After my nap, we went to the Hoops' family house to celebrate Easter. They always have a huge Easter picnic with food, an egg hunt, kite flying, and lots of other surprises. I need another hand!


The purple egg goes in here.


Ah-ha! I got you, you sneaky blue egg!


That's a whole bunch of eggs! I'm pretty good at this!


Open it faster, Mommy! I want to try a Crunch egg!


Flying a kite is alright. What are you supposed to do once you get it up there? It sort of gets boring after that.


My first ice cream cone and it has SPRINKLES!


Me and my friend Nora. Nora is 5 months younger than I am. We were worn out after a long day of Eastering.


Me, Carson, and Nora. Carson is Nora's big brother. He's so grown up already. Where did the time go?







Coloring Easter Eggs

We colored eggs for the Easter Bunny. Daddy found some coloring sticks at the store that made it way more fun for me. It was a perfect evening for coloring eggs outside.


Gracie was the Lead Egg Coloring Supervisor.


Um...oops.


A masterpiece!

Spring Break

My family and I went to the beach for Spring Break.


Ooo...this is the life, right Chris?


Relax and take a load off, Daddy.


I loved the mermaid. She was really friendly and...


she didn't mind me tugging on her tail!


Ready?


Ta-da! This is where I like to put any and all stickers.


We had one blustery, cold day. Daddy had to buy us all sweatshirts to keep us warm.


Daddy and I built sandcastles when it was too cold to be in the pool.


The Gulf is pretty big.


Let's see, the spade or the sifter? Which will it be?


A native Florida girl, just like Mommy.


Enjoying the sand

After a morning of visiting with Nana and Grandpa Tom, a nap was in order. The cool breeze, the fresh air, and the shade...aaahhh.

Hunting Eggs

One of our playgroups had an egg hunt today. I got the hang of hunting eggs pretty quickly and filled my bunny basket!


Sitting on the chameleon waiting for the fun to begin.


Jack's here!


Jenna and her big brother climbed on the chameleon with me.


Ready? Set? Go!


Got one!


"Open, Mommy, please."


Super Grover!


Everyone had lots of fun!


Then we did some egg pocking. It was new to us too. It's where you find a partner and knock hard boiled eggs. Whoever doesn't get a smashed egg wins. I made it to the second round, after defeating Aidan. Rah, ha, ha!


My egg got smashed by Anderson. Oh, man!



Me and Aidan

We went to dinner with Aidan and his parents. Aidan and I had a blast!

Buttons

I like Daddy's job. He goes into his office and pushes buttons. What's so bad about pushing buttons all day? Sound pretty cool to me. I liked the idea so much, I decided to pretend to work like Daddy.

Easter Candids

We went to see the Easter Bunny on Friday. He's a nice enough fellow. After my visit with him, I had some Spring photos taken.











Smoothie Time

Daddy makes delicious smoothies!
